BAIT

EDC1

YGL222C
RNA-binding protein that activates mRNA decapping directly; binds to mRNA substrate and enhances activity of decapping proteins Dcp1p and Dcp2p; has a role in translation during heat stress; protein becomes more abundant and forms cytoplasmic foci in response to DNA replication stress; EDC1 has a paralog, EDC2, that arose from the whole genome duplication

DCP2

PSU1, decapping enzyme complex catalytic subunit DCP1, L000002866, YNL118C
Catalytic subunit of the Dcp1p-Dcp2p decapping enzyme complex; removes the 5' cap structure from mRNAs prior to their degradation; also enters the nucleus and positively regulates transcription initiation; nudix hydrolase family member; forms cytoplasmic foci upon DNA replication stress

Affinity Capture-Western

An interaction is inferred when a bait protein is affinity captured from cell extracts by either polyclonal antibody or epitope tag and the associated interaction partner identified by Western blot with a specific polyclonal antibody or second epitope tag. This category is also used if an interacting protein is visualized directly by dye stain or radioactivity. Note that this differs from any co-purification experiment involving affinity capture in that the co-purification experiment involves at least one extra purification step to get rid of potential contaminating proteins.

Two related proteins, Edc1p and Edc2p, stimulate mRNA decapping in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Dunckley T, Tucker M, Parker R

The major mRNA decay pathway in Saccharomyces cerevisiae occurs through deadenylation, decapping, and 5' to 3' degradation of the mRNA. Decapping is a critical control point in this decay pathway. Two proteins, Dcp1p and Dcp2p, are required for mRNA decapping in vivo and for the production of active decapping enzyme. To understand the relationship between Dcp1p and Dcp2p, a combination ...

Mutations/deletions in separate genes, each of which alone causes a minimal phenotype, but when combined in the same cell results in a more severe fitness defect or lethality under a given condition. This term is reserved for high or low throughput studies with scores.
